How do I get rid of duplicate photos?

Hi @Hubbieslore79, I'd be happy to help! 

 

You'd need to manually go through your account, and delete any duplicates from there. 

 

If you have any questions, let me know!

How do I delete extra pictures of the same photo in my gallery so I don't waste space?

Hey @Me-ma, thanks for joining our Community!

 

By gallery, are you referring to your Dropbox Camera Uploads folder or perhaps generally a folder with photos in your Dropbox account?

 

If so, there isn't really a way to automatically delete duplicate photos or in bulk; you'd need to manually search for the duplicates to delete them.

 

Let me know if you have more questions.

Yes I meant redundant pics in the photos folder haha.
But thank you for your response. I was so afraid of losing photos I have multiple copies of some and I accidently PERMANANTLY deleted a bunch of others from my cell phone sadly. I am very electronically challenged lol.

Hi @Me-ma, are you able to find the photos you deleted from your phone on the Dropbox site or mobile app?
